he Careful ofthe Deadly wild Parsnip
W. II. Minor, of Willow Creek,
writes as follows to the Silver State
Monday afternoon l went into my
garden and dug some horse raddish-
have been using from tho same bed for
two or three years. Unaccountably
the deadly wild parsnip has gotten in
amongst it. While my little daugh-
ter, Laura, was preparing it for the
crater, she ate little of one of the
roots. In about 90 minutes she was
in commissions, the most fearful. For
about three hours she was unconscious.
Fortunately we suspected poison, and
administered emetic and antidotes at
once. l am satisfied that nothing but
this prompt and heroic treatment
saved her life. l send you this, hop
ing it may have q tendency to make
others more cautious.

An Important srlning Decision.

Last week the Secretary of the In
terror decided the case of BOdie (Cal-
ifornia) mineral entry No. II, made
December 1, 1883, by Henry Williams
for the Great Western lode claims.
He holds that the entryman has com.
piled with the law as to publication
and posting of notices. Mr.. Sparks
declined to approve the entry for the
patent, holding that the posting in the
local land Office did not cover the en-
tire period of publication upon the
entry; that If that publication is for
a longer period than sixty days the
posting in the local land office must
cover the entire period of publication,
although an identical period of sixty
days may have been covered by the
publication and the posting of the
notice IL the local office. The Secre-
iary says that when the notice is re-
quired to he given By different forms
and modes tn cover the same coEtinu-
Gus period of time. notice by either
IF the different modes will not run
against an adverse claimant until the
notice being given by each and every
mode and for the required time.
Hence, as in this case, an adverse
claimant does not take notice by pub
LEGATION until the notice is posted in
the California Office, as required by
law. Although the publication may
have commenced from the filing of the
notice in the local Office. the sixty
days within which adverse claims
were filed will be computed from the
time the notice has been given by all
the modes required.

EBONIZING WOOD.
Two Methods by Which It Can BE Dom
Neatly and DurabIy.


Neatly and DurabIy.
Prepare some shellac varnish by dis
solving half pound of gum shcllac in
quart of alcohol; put in tightly
corked bottle, set in q warm place.
and shake frequently. When COM
pletely dissolved. add sufficient dry
lamp or bone-black. 1t will require
only about heaping tablespoonful to
half pint of varnish. Should it be
too thick to flow easily from the brush
aud spread evenly, add alcohol. Give
the wood two or three coats of this.
which can be done within two
days. For fine work, give three coats
of the black varnish, and allow it to
dry thoroughly; then take some 90 or
600 sand-paper and rub the work down
lightly until the surface is smooth and
even. being careful not to rub through
to the wood. Then apply two or three
coats more, and rub them down again
with the sand-paper; give Two coats
more; allow it TO dry perfectly hard.
Make some rubbers of felt, an old felt
hat is good. by lacking the felt on
blocks of soft wood of proper shape.
which should be fat concave or con-
vex TO fit the work. Apply a few drops
of sewing machine oil or any fine oil
to the felt and sprinkle on pinch of
pulverized pumice stone. Rub The
work with this. keeping the rub
Der moist with oil. and supplied with
the pumice, until the wood shows a
perfectly smooth surface. without any
gloss. When it has all been gone over.
wipe off the surface and rub clean
with dry flannel cloths. The result is
fine imitation of ebony. If the shellac
varnish is cOlored with aniline instead
of lampblack. the finished surface is
smoother and finer.
Another way is to use fine coacl
black. ground in oil. thinned with
little linseed oil. Japan dryer and
turpentine. Give the work several
coats, rubbing down with fine sand
paper and finish with the
oil and pumice as above. This is a
fine aud durable finish. the draw back
being that it requires as many weeks
as the shellac does days TO dry 81 hard
that it can be rubbed. AS amateurs
are always in hurry to see their work
finished. it is seldom used. WIth
either of these methods any kind OF
wood may be used. snft or hard. 1t
must be scraped and sand-papered
down as smooth and true as possible
before applying the finish. Nei,he OF
them will raise the gram and make
the wood rough. or cause it to swell

The Last of the websters.

Ashbnrton Webster the last male
descendant Of Daniel Webster. died in
New York CITY, January q. 1879. He
was the son Of Colonel Fletcher Web
ster, who was killed at the head of his
regiment in the war for the suppression
Of the rebellion. and was born the same
year that Lord Ashburton, his grand
fathers friend, died. He was
educated at the Naval Acad-
envy at Annapolis. but did
not enter the navy. Afterwards he
studied law. but practiced it very little,
if any. Most of his life was passed at
Marshfield. which he inherited from
his grandfather. and where he caught
the cold that finally killed him when
the old mansion was burned in 20.
Not a single ray Of ancestral glory
illumined his uneventfnl career or
frightened its close. He simply ex-
changed the obscuri,y Of life for the
deeper obseuriiy Of death. and prob
ably not five hundred people in the
land knew that he had ever lived until
40 had ceased TO live. boston Bulge,
